    Rolly is severely handicapped with a twisted ankle created when Tank pushed him off the stand in a major league biatch move. I hear it is worse than David David haye's toe injury. Rolly will bravely continue with the match,,props to him.

    Not saying Tank isn't going to win, it wouldn't shock me in the least. Merely that none of you should be shocked in the least if a very heavy handed guy manages to brutally knock Tank out. As far as the tailor made part, sure he is, but Tank is also tailor made for Romero.

    Tank does not have career ending power and yes his fights do go rounds as you stayed . Tonight he has enough power and pressure for Rollie to end this faster than his last fights. Rollie is no Pit Bull.

    I could be wrong but I think this ends quickly.

    Not much, but it’s pretty obvious tank is 10x better

    If he was 10 times better, then why did he need a gift to beat Isaac Cruz?

    That was hands down a 115/113 or draw fight IMO

    IB and I both had Cruz nicking it 115-113, draw was acceptable, maybe if stretching it 115-113 Davis. But nothing wider in either direction.

    I think the difference in speed, skills, technique and experience will play a major part tonight.

    I went back and forth with a winner at 115/113 and it’s a shame we never got to see them run it back one MORE time

    Cruz is a real good tough kid and there is a reason Ryan Garcia has chickened out again. Tank won the fight due to his superior speed, skills and athleticism. Tougher fight in my opinion for Tank than Rolly.

    Really? Based on what? Fluke or punchers chance because it cannot be based on skill or technique? My prediction is I think Tank is going to be highly professional and put a systematic beating on him similar to Julio Cesar Chavez did to my guy “El Chapo” Edwin Rosario all those years ago, with Coach bullet having to pull Rolly out to save him.

    He won the fight, because Mayweather and Showtime greases palms really well. As far as Ryan goes, yeah... that was a ***** move, but he and Tank do have one shared opponent. Tank struggled with Fonseca, and got a half hearted TKO stoppage 8 rounds in, Kingry knocked him prone, ****ing unconscious in less than a round.

    Wouldn't be shocked either way now

    I like both, hope Spike can win the title. I think he has a decent shot if he manages to survive the first half.
